ASP Move Method

Definition and Usage

The Move method moves the specified file or folder from one location to another.

Note:The result of applying the Move method to File or Folder is exactly the same as the operation performed by FileSystemObject.MoveFile or FileSystemObject.MoveFolder. However, it should be noted that the FileSystemObject.MoveFile or FileSystemObject.MoveFolder methods can move multiple files or folders.

Syntax:

FileObject.Move(destination)
FolderObject.Move(destination)
Parameter Description
destination Required. The destination to move the file or folder to. Wildcards are allowed.

Example for File object

<%
dim fs,f
set fs=Server.CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set f=fs.GetFile("c:\test.txt")
f.Move("c:\test\test.txt")
set f=nothing
set fs=nothing
%>

Example for Folder object

<%
dim fs,fo
set fs=Server.CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
set fo=fs.GetFolder("c:\test")
fo.Move("c:\asp\test")
set fo=nothing
set fs=nothing
%>
